A local historical monument accepted by the state as an official historic marker down a few country roads in McCulloch County TX marks an important pioneer-era resource and the site of a horrifying massacre.

The Winter Hill air disaster occurred on 27 February 1958 when the Silver City Bristol 170 (G-AICS) travelling from the Isle of Man to Manchester crashed into Winter Hill, 35 people died and seven were injured

The plaque is placed on the east wall of the Chamber of Commerce office (formerly the C&O passenger depot) on First Street next to a small brass plate, which shows the high water mark from the 1939 flood.
